8. There are two safety devices in the pressure system in the form of a valve. One on the CO2 bottle, the
other is on the regulator.
9. Never attempt to rell CO2 cylinder yourself. CO2 tanks can be relled at locations such as welding supply
shops, party stores, re supply shops, or where kegs are purchased.
